Summary "Somewhere South in Sonora" by Will Levington Comfort is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story explores themes of family, identity, and cultural divides, centering around the life of Bob Leadley and his mixed-race son Bart in a small mining town in Arizona. As Bart navigates his heritage and the cultural tensions within the community, the narrative delves into the challenges faced by father and son, illustrating their struggles for acceptance in a divided society. The opening of the novel introduces Bob Leadley, who finds himself on a fateful night in the town of Bismo, Arizona. He receives distressing news about the birth of his son, Bart, whose mother has passed away shortly after childbirth. The narrative dives into Bob’s complex feelings regarding his son’s identity as a child of a Mexican mother in a predominantly white mining community. As Bart grows up, he embodies a blend of cultures, drawing the ire and scorn of the townsfolk while also solidifying a deep bond with his Mexican heritage. This sets the stage for a poignant exploration of their relationship, alongside the tensions of their environment, deepening the themes of belonging and identity that will likely unfold throughout the novel.
